Excellent-- sounds like you're hooked. Check out the Tie-Alongs that Pocono led in the fly tying forum if you haven't already-- and there are some flies in the Fly Pattern forum with step by step instructions and pics-- look for "SBS" ( for step by step) in the title of the post. And feel free to jump in on fly swaps if any interest you- everyone is always welcome regardless of experience.

Definitely hooked! I actually just finished up 24 flies for my first fly swap. I will definitely be on jumping in on more of those.

Nick: Welcome to the forum and the great sport of fly fishing! If you dig around on this site you will find tons of information, if you can't find something, don't hesitate to ask questions. We have lots of very knowledgeable fly fishers here willing to share information.

Thanks, Larry. I am quickly beginning to see that! It seems that there is a general lack of the "I'm better than you" attitude which is a welcome change in the world of internet fishing forums!

Take care,

Heck yeah! I inevitably end up in that area nearly once a year. I am bidding on a few projects that way as I speak. I'll keep you posted!!
